I entered my cars chassis number, which went through Japanese auction 13 months ago, and the report has come back with the correct auction image which is very interesting. Up until now after 3 months cars were generally lost in the system and coudn't be found. Turns out that is no longer the case...

I have not paid for the full report as i have all my auction documents inc. Full Japanese service history and BIMTA certificate and so i am happy with the history i have, but if you have doubts or are merely inquisitive then i could be a very handy tool. Cost for the full report is 3,500 JPN - around £22.00 at todays rates.

I have added the link to the navigation bar on my website or you can CLICK HEREto get there directly.

If someone gives it a try and it all works well then we'll make this a sticky in this section.

I had lots of other photos of the car on the dockside in Japan and I got lots of the service history and manuals with the car in Japanese. Plus I have the Autobacs labels on the car still, etc. Happy that the car is/was as described by SVA to be honest.

As everyone knows (sorry for carrying on about it ) i have been very concerned about the integrity of imported cars since i first started looking for a car myself last year.

I'm going to make a dedicated page on my website over the next few days, uncovering some of the things that i have found. Gimme a couple of days and it'll be sorted; the link to the HPI checker is there and working now.
